In most public schools, even Christmas is not celebrated and is incorporated in "winter break".
Special accommodations for muslims?
Hell no; although NYC Mayor de Blasio caved and has included 2 muslim holidays for New York schools.
For Muslims, it signals acceptance. "When these holidays are recognized, it’s a sign that Muslims have a role in the political and social fabric of America," said Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, to the New York Times.
The fool de Blasio doesn't recognize the creeping sharia.

Absolutely American pubic schools should close on Muslim holidays.
Right after madrassas in Mecca start closing for Christmas, Good Friday, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

No! They lost all credibility on 9/11. But of course the dhimmis will provide them with everything.

Absolutely they should close for Muslim holidays.
And, stay closed for the balance of Radical Islamist Hunting Season.
That way, our kids won’t miss out on their education. Best of all, there’s no bag limit.

The public schools here in NJ are still closed around the Christian holidays (with generic secular names); we could easily end up in a situation where winter break is moved into January and the spring break is moved away from Easter (which thankfully is always on a Sunday).
The Muslim swine might not realize it, but usually the closings on those days are because of the TEACHERS’ religions, not the students (where too many teachers would use personal days). A friend who taught in East Orange NJ (along the Newark Welfare Reservation’s border) had the Jewish holidays off, and that district hadn’t seen Jewish students in DECADES. They still had some Jewish teachers, though; that was the reason for the holidays.
